Re: podee
We worked well witht them for a while but I felt like more formula was landing on the clothes than in the mouth.. You're supposed to prime the bottle to get the formula into the straw/nipple.
I'm going to try again in the future, for now it's Dr. Brown's!

I would have them sit in their bouncy seats.
I, too, would love to have them eat simultaneously. I've tried having one on either side in the seats using reg. bottles, but somehow it's not as efficient as I thought it would be.

Re: podee
What I do is put them in the seats and put a pillow on their lap with the bottle on top it works like a charm..i put them in front of the einstien DVD...at night bring the chair upstairs and you can put one in while you feed the other if they wake up at the same time..You could also put them in their carseat with a pillow on top with the bottle.

You need to suck it to the top of the nipple. Once they get the taste of it, they'll do the rest.

make sure that the piece below the nipple where the straw inserts is tight ... if it's loose, it won't have any suction. Seems like this is too complicated, right??!
